Predictable but acting was great!

It's a love story, so it's fairly predictable... even the ending. However, the story was touching and the acting from Nicholas Tse and Gao Yuan Yuan was superb (this is coming from someone who's not a fan of Nicholas Tse's movies)! I watched several of Gao Yuan Yuan's movie but none have been impressive as this one.

This movie may be somewhat predictable but unique in how this romance was tied in to one of America's historic tragedies.

There were some political overtones but that derives from the backgrounds of both of the characters and is somewhat expected. The icon scenery of New York in the early 1990s brought back fond nostalgic memories.
